1.Recent progress on study of the selection of intraocular lens in the bilateral sequential cataract surgery
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2014;32(6):560-562
Bilateral sequential cataract surgery is very common in clinical,but the ophthalmologists often ignore how to choose the timing of operation and whether the first eye can be used to improve the intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation for the second one.Despite the refinements in IOL selection with the use of third-generation IOL formulas,5% of eyes still result in a postoperative refractive surprise of ± 1.00 D or more.This paper introduced the methods of using refraction error of the first eye to improve the IOL power calculation for the second eye,and the refractive error of the second eye can be improved by modifying the IOL power to correct up to 50% of the error from the first eye in details.Because of the variation of the postoperative refractive surprise within a month,the interval of three to four weeks between two eyes cataract surgery is highly recommended.These conclusions may provide the advantageous guidance for us in the selection of IOL in bilateral cataract surgery.
2. Pharmacokinetics of fondaparinux sodium in Chinese patients after major thoracic surgery
Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2012;47(24):2022-2025
OBJECTIVE: To characterize the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of 2.5 mg fondaparinux sodium in Chinese patients after thoracic surgery. METHODS: Thirteen patients were enrolled in the study and were given a single dose of 2.5 mg fondaparinux sodium via a subcutaneous injection. Plasma concentrations of fondaparinux sodium were measured throughout a 24 h period. The pharmacokinetic analysis was performed using WinNonlin software. RESULTS: The following pharmacokinetic parameters were derived; t1/2(7.92 ± 3.13) (4.21-15.89) h, tmax(2.52 ± 0.93) (1.38-4) h, p-1 (0.73 ± 0.18) (0.45-1.02) mg · L-1, AUClast(6. 56 ± 2.19) (3.07-9. 75)mg · h · L-1, Vz/F(3.54 ± 1.00) (2.24-5.73) L, CL/F(0.34 ± 0.14) (0.16-0.63) L · h-1, and MRTlast (6.98 ± 2.1) h. The pearson correlation coefficient, r was 0.7283(P = 0.005) between the serum creatinine(Scr) and mean residence time(MRTlast) of fondaparinux. CONCLUSION: The disposition of fondaparinux is highly variable in patients. A statistical significant correlation between Scr and MRTlast of fondaparinux was observed. Fondaparinux sodium administered by intravenous injection is well tolerated in patients.

Objective To observe the effectiveness of probucol for non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) with hyperlipidemia.Methods Fifty-two patients (104 eyes) of NPDR with hyperlipidemia were enrolled in this study.The patients were randomly divided into treatment group and control group,26 patients (52 eyes) in each group.Both groups received diet and exercise guidance,oral hypoglycemic agents and (or) intensive insulin therapy.After blood sugar and blood pressure were controlled,the treatment group received probucol 0.5 g,two times per day; and the control group received atorvastatin of 10 mg,one time per day.The total course was 12 months.Before and after one,three,six and 12 months,all patients underwent vision,ophthalmoscope,fundus fluorescein angiography,blood and urine tested.Variations of visual acuity,fundus condition,macular edema,triglyceride (TG),total cholesterol (TC),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) and 8-0HdG were observed before and after treatment.Results The total effective rate of visual prognosis were 44.23% and 40.38% in the treatment group and the control group,the difference had no statistical significacy (Z=-0.335,P>0.05).Retinal hemorrhages and microaneurysms alleviated after treatment in both groups.The total efficiency of fundus prognosis was 65.38% in the treatment group and 36.54% in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant (Z=-2.973,P<0.05).Macular edema was in six and five eyes in the treatment group and the control group respectively,which were lower than before treatment,the difference was statisticaly significant (x2=4.833,4.300; P<0.05).Between the two groups,the difference was not statistically significant (x2 =0.102,P> 0.05).Twelve months after treatment,TG,TC and LDLC were decreased in the treatment group (t=15.653,7.634,14.871) and control group (t=13.275,7.415,13.632),and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).HDLC showed no significant difference than before in the two groups (t=0.584,0.275; P>0.05).TG,TC,LDLC and HDLC showed no difference between the two groups (t=1.857,0.133,1.671,0.875; P>0.05).8-0HdG decreased gradually during the one,three,six and 12 months in the treatment group (t=7.352,15.581,27.324,28.143) and control group (t =6.877,8.672,14.671,14.855) after treatment,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).In the first month aftertreatment,8 0HdG showed no difference between the two groups (t=0.513,P>0.05).In the 3,6,and 12 months after treatment,the 8 0HdG was lower in the treatment group than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant (t =3.434,5.917,5.226; P<0.05).Conclusion In the treatment of NPDR with hyperlipidemia,probucol can reduce blood lipid,stable visual function and relieve macular edema.
7.Cluster ensemble algorithm based on dual neural gas applied to cancer gene expression profiles.
Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2015;32(1):93-98
The microarray technology used in biological and medical research provides a new idea for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. To find different types of cancer and to classify the cancer samples accurately, we propose a new cluster ensemble framework Dual Neural Gas Cluster Ensemble (DNGCE), which is based on neural gas algorithm, to discover the underlying structure of noisy cancer gene expression profiles. This framework DNGCE applies the neural gas algorithm to perform clustering not only on the sample dimension, but also on the attribute dimension. It also adopts the normalized cut algorithm to partition off the consensus matrix constructed from multiple clustering solutions. We obtained the final accurate results. Experiments on cancer gene expression profiles illustrated that the proposed approach could achieve good performance, as it outperforms the single clustering algorithms and most of the existing approaches in the process of clustering gene expression profiles.
